From the legendary author and creator of Drizzt Do'Urden comes the next installment in the New York Times bestselling DemonWars fantasy series, about the traitorous invasion by the Xoconai of the eastern realms of Corona. However, the heroes of the last war against their demon god may be forgotten, but they are not powerless.

Treaties are discarded as the full invasion of the Xoncai has begun and war returns to Corona. Consolidating resistance on land in Behren and within the abbeys as a last stand against the golden warriors is the catalyst for the return of the most powerful gem-wielding witch the world has ever known.

Yet, as the rumor of a witch of gemstone magic reaches the Xoconai they send a hunter, so brutal he is known as the Coyote, to find her in this novel set at the beginning of a new war in R. A. Salvatore's bestselling world of heroic fantasy.

Also known as Pinquickle's Folly Book 2.

R. A. Salvatore

R. A. Salvatore

In a genre known for sprawling maps and ancient prophecies, R. A. Salvatore carved his legacy not just through epic battles, but by giving his heroes a soul.

Long before fantasy became mainstream, Salvatore introduced readers to Drizzt Do’Urden—a dark elf torn between the violent culture he was born into and the moral code he chose to follow. This inner struggle, threaded through fast-paced combat and sweeping world-building, struck a nerve. Drizzt wasn’t just another sword-wielding adventurer; he was a philosophical outsider in a genre that rarely stopped to ask why.

Raised in Massachusetts, Salvatore didn’t grow up dreaming of dragons—his love of storytelling bloomed later, sparked by a battered copy of The Lord of the Rings during a snowstorm. From there, he wrote with the urgency of someone discovering a new language. His early jobs, from warehouse worker to bouncer, taught him about grit and consequence, lessons that quietly shape his fiction. You can feel it in every clash of blades and moment of quiet doubt.

Though best known for his work in the Forgotten Realms, Salvatore has built original worlds as well—like the DemonWars Saga, where magic and mortality are deeply entwined. His stories explore what it means to choose your path, even when the world expects you to follow another. That moral complexity, paired with some of the most kinetic fight scenes in modern fantasy, has earned him a fiercely loyal readership.

He once said, “It’s not the sword, it’s the hand that wields it.” That philosophy echoes through all his work—reminding readers that even in a world of monsters and magic, the hardest battles are often internal.
